The Rise and Fall of Shopping Online

In the past week, I made many purchases through Amazon for Nail Art items. Bulk Nail Polish collections, some plate collections etc. Today I received 8 packages in the mail. Yes my friends... it was a good day. Or so I thought.....

Of the 8 packages, only two were in tact, and the correct items! Can you believe that? All from different sellers, and all but two had issues. I'm not too happy. So I took photographs of everything and contacted the sellers of each item with a detailed description of the issues.

Now I can't play around with anything I got just in case I have to send it all back, which would be a giant pain in the butt! So before I review any of the items I bought, I am waiting to hear back from the sellers to see how they handle my situation.  If they handle it well, then there would be no need to complain really, as long as everything gets taken care of.

So I won't be reviewing anything until these situations get resolved.

The following items arrived without incident... and here we go!

Konad Nail Stamping Plates
My Image

I like to window shop and bookmark items I want to buy with my next paycheck. I saw this Konad Plate on Amazon and really wanted it. As you probably know, Konad plates average around 6.99 per plate. This one on Amazon was only 3.99 at the time, so I grabbed it. Plus Free Shipping. (Updated at bottom)

My Price was 3.99
Current Listed Price is 5.59
Here's the Link to this item.

Since I knew the price for Konad plates, I looked around from this seller to see if they had any other plates for 3.99 and Free Shipping. I found two more that I liked and so I bought them as well. This is one of them.

Price is currently 3.99
Here is a link to this item

I also bought this one as well.
All three arrived safe and sound.
All three had free shipping and arrived in about a weeks time. Not bad.

Update : I have since used this plate and am very happy! You can see the results on my "Lunch At Tiffany's" manicure.

Price is currently 3.99

My New Mash Stamper set. My current stamper that I got with my Salon Express kit was garbage so I wanted a new one. This one seemed good and also had Free Shipping.  I have used it. The stamp part is great. The scraper scratched my plate. So I just use a credit card. I like it! Price was 4.50 Here is a link to this item.

Well... I am still pretty happy with everything even tho there were some errors. We will see what the sellers do for me. I hope it's an easy process and that I don't run into a ton of issues. 

Get Your Nails Did!

UPDATE 5/29/2013 : I have already heard back from two of the sellers about my inquiries. Both had very positive responses that made me happy. I just need to wait and see if they follow through. Hopefully the other outcomes will be the same. 

UPDATE 5/30/2013 : All sellers have responded at this point and have been very cooperative and helpful. I still need to wait and see if they follow through.

UPDATE 5/31/2013 KONAD IMAGE STAMPING PLATE #MJ51 :  I am disappointed! I tried to use this plate last night. The stamp with the multiple flowers doesn't seem to be etched well. Only a small part of the image would get on the stamper. After 5 or 6 tries I gave up. :/ Also.. Edited the "now" price. It was 4.30 when I last checked, the price has since gone up again.
